Hi all.... I came back after a good 11 months off and i noticed a few things seems odd to me. I normally do a bh 29 to keep my pullin skills up and i noticed things are different.

I now draw agro in 2 hits instead of 3.
My summons/unsommons - pet switch seems faster now.
Qingzi seems to hit harder and take longer to die.

I do open the door first ( i don't know if that issue was fixed with pullin threw walls) and clear all mobs before goin after the boss.

I should use my other skills more but i don't seem to need them for farming / low level dungeons.


So my questions are these.....
Did venos get changed or did the mobs get changed?

Plus i don't see as many players ( none outside of archausar on other side of rivers) in game as before.

cant i use youtube vids here anymore like in other pwi games like RH?

i dont see the button to teleport to nearest teleport agent in my skills list. the green icon that gave us a free teleport every 30 minutes or so.

thanks for the help.

    I haven't noticed that much of a change, then again, my veno is only level 64. The issue of drawing aggro in less hits and Qingzi dying slower and hitting harder may only be you being out of practice for 11 months. That's a long time ago to compare to.

    Still, drawing aggro faster means that you might just be hitting harder. Are you wearing a Jones blessing this time around? b:laugh

    My summons/unsommons - pet switch seems faster now.

    Pet summoning was changed when the Genesis expansion came around. That was more than 11 months ago. But, you can summon a new pet without unsummoning the old one first, although I find that this usually glitches out their skills somehow.

    Did venos get changed or did the mobs get changed?

    Other than a new tameable rare pet for level 101 venos and brand new Morai skills, I don't think they've changed much. At least not that I've noticed. A lot of higher level bosses got increased in difficulty, but the normal world mobs should be the same.

    Plus i don't see as many players

    There's not as many questing lowbies anymore, since most people are super lazy now and just buy heads to powerlevel. You still find 5 or 6 people doing the West Archo grind every now and then though.

    Uh...yes? b:shutup I don't think this forum has /youtube codes like the newer ones might, most people just post links like you did below.

    Ah, this is what happens when you take a break for a year. b:chuckle For one, the icon is called Town Teleport, it's blue (not green) and should be the very last skill in your skill list. It just teleports you to the nearest town, which may or may not be close to the nearest teleport agent, and takes an hour to cool down. And it's always been like that.

    Unfortunatelly it's not venos that have changed but the whole game. The difficulty of mobs and instances has ben increased, the difference is very noticable in places like tt. TT 1-3 is supposed to be for players lvl 76+, but honestly right now I cannot imagine a full squad of ppl around lvl 80 being able to do it, and even if they would, they'd go through a rly hard time. 3-3 is almost impossible to do now unless u have a sq of rly well geared lvl 100+ ppl. And its a sad part cuz this is supposed to be for ppl who are trying to farm their tt99 / 100 gear, not the ones who already have r8 / 9 or nirvana gear... The reason y u dont see too many low lvls around anymore is simply cuz we dont have them. Due to a poor advertisement of the game and pwi's constant pack/ r9/ orbs sales which destroyed the market, many ppl have left the game. Most of the ppl around the newbie areas u will see (if any) are either simple cat shops or alts of someone who already has 1 or more lvl 90/ 100+ character... Sad but true.

    thanks all. i am only here because Rusty hearts is a glitch fest and there are things for a Veno to do here as to the other classes.
    I must be rusty because i almost died in bh 29 .lol.
    I need to get used to my Veno build bein so fluffy and rely more on my pet.
    I spent the better part of the year away from here on games like this one BUT gunning classes like in rusty hearts.
